1.All I Can Be(Is A Sweet Memory)
Lyrics：Harlan Howard
Music：Harlan Howard
All I can be is a sweet memory
That drifts through your mind time from time
I can never be more than a knock on your door
Just a shadow that's gone with the sunshine
For you know I'm not free
And I never can be
And your bound to get restless in time
All I can be is a sweet memory
That drifts through your mind
Tonight I'll share the silence
While lying here with you
Sands of time have trickled down
Just a precious few
You're young and so beautiful
And I'm glad that I'm here
But the ending is painfully clear
All I can be is a sweet memory
Of someone you had to leave behind
Who loves you and needs you
Never could give you
A ring for your finger so fine
So tonight we'll just borrow each other
Tomorrow we'll find we've run out of time
All I can be is a sweet memory
That drifts through your mind
For you know I'm not free
And I never can be
And your bound to get restless in time
All I can be is a sweet memory
That drifts through your mind
All I can be is a sweet memory
That drifts through your mind
2.Every Second
Lyrics：Wayne Perry／Gerald Smith
Music：Wayne Perry／Gerald Smith
Well listen dear I think it's clear
We need to sit and talk
Seems you've got this notion I've been having second thoughts
Well I must confess in a way I guess that silly notion's true
'Cause every second you're not here I think of you
Every second, every minute, every hour of every day
Every second there's a thought of you that comes my way
So if you ask that I've had second thoughts I'd have to say
Every second, every minute, every hour of every day.
Now I propose we drink a toast and turn the lights down low
Put our favoritie music on and hold each other close
Don't worry dear you'll always be here in my heart to stay
Every second, every minute, every hour of every day
Every second, every minute, love you more and more each day
3.Faithful Old Flame
Written：Lonnie Wilson／Brent Mason
You come around most every night
Looking for my heart
Each time I turn out the light
I can count on you to start
Bringing back sweet memories
Of the love we made
You never change
YOu're a faithful old flame
I know you'll be here right on time
To ear me up again
You never stay away too long
And give me a chance to mend
Tears won't drown your fire in me
It's even worse when it rains
You never stray from a faithful old flame
Just when I think you're gone
You start the fire
And I yearn for your touch
That i miss so much
Embers of love glow even brighter
Than they did
Yesterday, they won't go away
I've tried my best
To put you out
But the spark remains
It's still the same
You're a faithful old flame
You never stray
You're a faithful old flame
4.Scuse Moi, My Heart
Lyrics：Jerry Fuller／Steve Stone
Music：Jerry Fuller／Steve Stone
You grew up in the city, High society girl
And even this backwoods boy can tell
you're a woman of the world
'Cause I get weak when I hear you speak
The way they do in France
I'm sure you've heard these fancy words
But I e got to take a chance
Svp pardonne me !, I can help my self
Darling j ai vous aimes beaucoup, if you and no one else
Forgive me if I say it wrong, but I just thing that smart
If you cant see this love in me, then scuse moi my heart
I showed up in new Orland
with all I own on my back
I got me a job at the country club
On the rich side of the track
then you came in with your jet set friends
That you meet in Paris
Well now there gone and your alone ,, looking straight at me
Svp pardonne me !, I can help my self
Darling j ai vous aimes beaucoup, if you and no one else
Forgive me if I say it wrong, but I just thing that smart
If you cant see this love in me, then scuse moi my heart
Why cant we try the language of love
The one thing you cant place your self above
Oh don allow your social pride
To keep are dreams apart
If you cant see this love in me
Then scuse moi my heart
Svp pardonne me !, I can help my self
Darling j ai vous aimes beaucoup, if you and no one else
Forgive me if I say it wrong, but I just thing that smart
If you cant see this love in me, then scuse moi my heart
5.Any Old Stretch of Blacktop
Written：Frank J.Meyers／Bernie Nelson
I got money in my pocket and a guitar in my hand
These lonely nights without you are more than I can stand
I work like a puppet
But it's time to cut the strings
Well I hit the ground running
And I won't be looking back
I'll be like a locomotive headed down a one waytrack
It won't take too long just you wait and see
As long as it will lead me back to you
Any old stretch of blacktop will do
North, south, east or west
Been everywhere it seems
Uptown rooms and honky tonks don't feel like home to me
I'll be stepping out the rhythm while I'm singing a new song
And it's knowing where I'm going that will keep me moving on
Turn my collar to the wind and put my thumb up in the air
Flag a diesal down or catch a bus from anywhere
Colorado, California, or even Kalamazoo
As long as it will lead me back to you
Any old stretch of blacktop will do
Well I hit the ground running
And I won't be looking back
I'll be like a locomotive headed down a one way track
It won't take too long just you wait and see
As long as it will lead me back to you
Any old stretch of blacktop will do
Alright
6.Love, Me
Lyrics：Skip Ewing／Max T.Barnes
Music：Skip Ewing／Max T.Barnes
I read a note my grandma wrote back in nineteen twenty-three.
Grandpa kept it in his coat, and he showed it once to me. He
said,
'Boy, you might not understand, but a long, long time ago,
Grandma's daddy didn't like me none, but I loved your Grandma
so.'
We had this crazy plan to meet and run away together.
Get married in the first town we came to, and live forever.
But nailed to the tree where we were supposed to meet, instead
Of her, I found this letter, and this is what it said：
If you get there before I do, don't give up on me.
I'll meet you when my chores are through;
I don't know how long I'll be.
But I'm not gonna let you down, darling wait and see.
And between now and then, till I see you again,
I'll be loving you. Love, me.
I read those words just hours before my Grandma passed away,
In the doorway of a church where me and Grandpa stopped to pray.
I know I'd never seen him cry in all my fifteen years;
But as he said these words to her, his eyes filled up with
tears.
If you get there before I do, don't give up on me.
I'll meet you when my chores are through;
I don't know how long I'll be.
But I'm not gonna let you down, darling wait and see.
And between now and then, till I see you again,
I'll be loving you. Love, me.
Between now and then, till I see you again,
I'll be loving you. Love, me.
7.Blue Magic
Written：Jerry Fuller／John Hobbs／Collin Raye
I hear your favorite music on the jukebox
And right away I know that you are here
You always pick a time
Just when I think my mind is clear you reappear
And once again you've got me in your power
This time I hope it's not a brief romance
'Cause it's too late to run
You've got me thinking one slow dance is worth a chance
Then that old blue magic still works like a charm
As if you never even left these aching arms
You put a spell on me I guess I'll always be hypnotized
By that blue magic in your eyes
Though I should run and hide from this illusion
Your smile is so much quicker than my pride
There's something up your sleeve
That makes my heart believe inside
This carpet ride might lift us up and fly us to forever
But up 'til now its all been slight of hand
I've got to face the fact one look and I'm right back at your
command
'Cause that old blue magic still works like a charm
As if you never even left these aching arms
You put a spell on me I guess I'll always be hypnotized
By that blue magic in your eyes
Yes, you put a spell on me I guess I'll always be hypnotized
By that blue magic.. that old blue magic... that blue magic in
your eyes
8.It Could've Been So Good
Written：Chris Walters／Lonnie Wilson
When I think about you leaving and being here alone
It's not the love we knew that hurts me
But the love we could have known
I'm not sorry that I held you
I just wish that I still could
Oh it's not that it was so bad
It just could've been so good
I don't regret one moment that we had together
What's killing me is knowing we could have had forever
I just wish we loved each other the way I know we could
Oh it's not that it was so bad
It just could've been so good
I don't want to lose the memories of all the nights we shared
And I never found a new love that ever could compare
I just wish we hadn't left things standing where they stood
Girl it's not that it was so bad
It just could've been so good
I don't regret one moment that we had together
What's killing me is knowing we could have had forever
I just wish we loved each other the way I know we could
Oh it's not that it was so bad
It just could've been so good
Oh it's not that it was so bad
It just could've been so good
9.Sadly Ever After
Lyrics：Mark Collie／Bruce Burch
Music：Mark Collie／Bruce Burch
We had a storybook beginning getting better with each page
Somewhere in the middle I somehow lost my place
Then came the final chapter where you said we were through
And left me living sadly ever after loving you
Sadly ever after since you said goodbye
With just one little word you wrote me right out of your life
You found a new prince charming
Now I'm a royal shade of blue
Alone and living sadly ever after loving you
Now the story that I'm writing is a sad, sad tale to tell
'Bout a man that loved someone who loved somebody else
But I wish that it was fiction but heaven knows it's true
And the ending leaves me sadly ever after loving you
Sadly ever after since you said goodbye
With just one little word you wrote me right out of your life
You found a new prince charming
Now I'm a royal shade of blue
Alone and living sadly ever after loving you
Oh, you found a new prince charming
Now I'm a royal shade of blue
Alone and living sadly ever after loving you
10.If I Were You
Written：Richard Fagan／Rick Peoples
Well I better tell you upfront you've always been my friend
The kind of woman you found won't come your way again
She's the kind of lady that every man dreams of
Son if you don't treat her right she'll find someone that does
If I were you and she was mine
I'd give her all my lovin' all the time
I'd thank the Lord each morning she wakes up by my side
That's what I'd do if I were you and she was mine
Well I've never been a preacher and I ain't gonna start
Buddy what you're thinkin' 'bout can tear your world apart
You know that barroom beauty would be better left alone
She can't hold a candle to the girl you got at home
If I were you and she was mine
I'd give her all my lovin' all the time
I'd thank the Lord each morning she wakes up by my side
That's what I'd do if I were you and she was mine
Now we've been friends for so long and I hope we'll always be
But if she leaves you for someone new that someone might be me
Oh... I'd thank the Lord each morning she wakes up by my side
That's what I'd do if I were you and she was mine
That's what I'd do if I were you and she was mine
